We do two kinds of load testing for our Solr search farm.
1. Zipf distribution, using a log of user queries. This tests the
engine without any caching in front.
2. Flat distribution, using unique queries (sort|uniq on the above
log). This is a worst case load with a perfect cache in front.

On rereading my original post it does sound weird. Let me try again and
thanks for bearing with me.

Hi,
I think you are describing some "weird" unrealistic scenarios.
There is typically no need to test "just solr" without relying on disk caches.
Not using disk buffers will only work in trivial scenarios, but if you really
want to test it, run something that hogs memory while running solr perf
